Gamestop has 'em if you are in the US. They also sell Universal adapters that work with Wii/PS3/360 and have component cables you are looking for. If you are looking for an actual Microshaft brand cable, you'd probably have to check ebay or craigslist and get lucky. Maybe try calling microshaft support #?

Thanks to the great build quality of the Xbox 360 I have a few of those cables but now that someone wants one I can't find any >__<

mind if I ask why it needs to be this specific cable?

I'll take a look around but unless you are in the US it would be better to just buy one from Amazon or something

I actually ran into the same sorta problem, which is why I mentioned Gamestop and Craigslist. Gamestop does carry them, you just have to call store to store to find one in stock, I ended up buying one off a guy on Craigslist that was selling the console, I said hey you are asking 100 bucks for the console, I'll give U 20 bucks plus a different cable (it was one of the composite microshaft ones) and dude was like sure! Then later that week I found one in the used cables at Gamestop. Although this was like 3 years ago when I had to replace my kid's 360, I'm sure if you call people selling 360's off Craigslist and do what I did you'll find one. I mean they are just selling the system anyway, so basically it is a free 20 bucks to them, who cares what cables they sell it with, at least that's what I would think most people would do. It was literally the first guy I saw selling a 360 I called and got the cable off of...

Edit: There is a used computer store that sells parts in my area, I'll call in the morning and see if they have one (if you are in the US) and if the do I'll give you the number, they sell stuff on ebay, so I'm sure they would ship the cable to you if they had it, I'd try calling used/computer repair shops too...
